Jules is a Conversational Character Robot designed and built by David Hanson.
It is made with a light weight material called Frubber™ , which enables his/her face to be mobile and expressive. Go to HANSONROBOTICS.COM to learn more...
We did this project as the visuals of the ceremony of FAD's glass.This glass apears for an instant, talking us about creation process and the relationship between materials and it's shapes.Fluid or liquid shapes could maigbe be future materials with intelligence and shapping propierties.
Aerogels: The Materials Science of Empty Space (54 mins)
Nano material behave differently:
Nano: means nano meter (1/1000000000 meter)
Aerogels are a class of materials with fascinating properties but they are hardly materials at all as they can be composed of up to 99.8% empty space. Aerogels are among the most versatile materials available for technical applications due to their wide variety of exceptional properties. This material has chemists, physicists, astronomers, and materials scientists utilizing its properties in a myriad of applications. In this lecture Dr. Gash and Mr. Dean Reese will describe and demonstrate the structure, properties, and advanced applications of aerogels, and even synthesize one.
